a little bit of magic happened

I added the sink and faucet and new pop drain (Which is the coolest damn thing ever.) And began the tedious task of attaching everything. Nothing reached, because my new sink stands about three inches higher than the old. I learned so much about plumbing in one evening and one desperate trip to Home Depot. And I had a man at Home Depot tell me he would get me an orange apron, which was pretty awesome. It took about four hours, in which I got the hot and cold backward despite careful labeling, but eventually, I had a working sink.

The tub got an aqua coat, the sink painted all white. New matching shower curtain were added.

Finally, the floor got a coat of high gloss white, turning my hated tile into my favorite floor in the house. It took nearly six hours to dry. Two new rugs and New matching towels.
